John Lakos Chief Software Architect with Bloomberg LP; previously he was with Bear Stearns and
MentorGraphics. While at
MentorGraphics, he wrote the book "Large-Scale C++ Software Design" (
LargeScaleCppSoftwareDesign) from the Addison-Wesley Professional Computing Series. It quickly became a widely touted and respected treatise on solving many of the problems of physical software design that arise when developing large C++ software projects. This book (and others) are mentioned in the
GreatBooksList elsewhere on this site.
He is reportedly working on a second book, titled
Scalable C++: Component-based Development.

LargeScaleCppSoftwareDesign moved to that page.]
